The meeting of the Business Mem
Association on Tuesday evening of this
week was unusually well attended. 1t
was understood that matters Of interest
to the city were to receive consideration
and this fact insured large attendance.
The following officers were elected: Pres
ident, Fred Schuette; Vice-President,
Thomas Torrison; Treasurer, Reinhardt
Rahr; Secretary, Oscar Alter; Directors,
e. H. Rand, William Rahr.
The committee appointed to confer with
the Wisconsin Central are Reinhardt
Rahr. I. G. Shove, Z. X. Rand, Thomas
Torrison, John Franz. The Central is
particularly DESTROYS Of securing a lake
port for its through ST. Paul business
and also as station at which to receive
coal for distribution through the western
country.
A semi-official proposition comes to the
city from the Mil, Lake Shore & Western
which promises to give the city all i asks
for without new line. The LAX Shore
& Western has entered into some agree
ment with the Wisconsin Central to do
its through business from St. Paul, from
some point of connection. The Lake
Shore 4 Western asks nothing but ter
minaI facilities and seems inclined to give
this city the preference, though il
has alternatives in Sheboygan and Two
Rivers. A right of way through the city
to the shore line is perhaps all that viii
be asked. IF the business of the Wiscon-
sin Central can be brought to this place
over the line of the Lake Shore Il West
ern it will be far more advantageous to
Manitowoc than the same business over
a new line. The fewer roads we have
running through the county, building up
competing points with the city, the better.
The arrangement indicated would secure
the business of the Lake Shore & West
Gln as well as that of the Central, in short
would make this city a lake outlet for
both roads. If properly managed this
opportunity can be made very advantage
Gus to the city.

THE propeller Depere reached a point
IN the lake opposite Manitowoc on Sat
urday night, but the ice, owing to the
prevailing easterly winds, had so filed
the Bay that she was unable to make the
harbor, and remained ice-bound two miles
outside until Monday morning when the
wind shifted to the west and released her.
Early Monday morning Ed. Carus and
Ed. Schnederman, who were aboard the
Depere, started for the shore on the ice.
It was most foolhardy proceeding as it
was all drift ice. Fortunately they reach
ell the shore in safety.

HE Business Mems Association o
Green Bay has appointed committee tt
confer with the officials of the Wiscon
SIN Central with a view to securing
connection with that road and max
ing Green Bay the eastern terminus Of
the air line to St. Paul. But the people
are not unanin MS as to the desira.
blhty of the connection. The Green
great deal for Green Bay and the kindli-
est feeling is felt toward it. The road
has had many difficulties to contend
against, but it has slowly sUlrmounted
all and has kept extending its line west
ward with a view to ultimately having it
reach st. Paul. 1t has made Green Bay
its outlet for all through freight. The
grain brought over the road is shipped
direct to eastern markets and Green Bay
wheat buyers are, able IN consequence to
pay Milwaukee prices for grain. This
has insured her the entire trade of Brown
county and also that of adjoining
counties not at too great distance.
Manitowoc has been deprived of a large
portion of the farmer trade of this county
which was attracted to Green Bay by the
better prices prevailing there. This was
due to the large elevators built by the
railroad company and by means of which
direct shipments to eastern markets are
possible. The people of Green Bay and
Fort Howard feel grateful to the Green
Bay < Winona road and are reluctant to
invite competition againt an old friend.
Then, The Fort Howard Sentinel believes
that even should the Central come to
Green Bay it would push its line to some
point on the lake. and mentions Sturgeon
Bay or hewaunee as the probable points.
This would force the Green Bay & Winona
TO seek lake port as an eastern termin-
us, and Green Bay would become a way
station.
Manitowoc wants that Central road if
it can be had and wants to be the lake
shore shipping point for ali freight IN
tended for eastern markets. Make
Manitowoc a good wheat market, and
this it can be made by shipping direct to
the east,-so that it can get the farmer
trade of the entire county and adjoining
portions of surrounding counties and we
can snap our fingers at factories. An
extensive farmer trade is of far more
value than the trade of poorly paid
labOrers. ManitOwOc county has pop
ulation of 10000 in round numbers. If
this city shipped grain direct to Buffalo
it could command the trade of a territory
sustaining a population of 10000 souls.
The trade of 10000 people would make a
lively city of ManitOwoc. We want a
large elevator and grain enough to secure
frequent shipments. This is what the
business men should turn their attention
to and quit running after prospective
factories which are by no means an I'M
mixed blessing.

GORGEO U s !
That Is What Everybody Says Who
Looks Upon the Elegant Draperies
Of the Indiana Capitol.
The Resources and Artistic Ingenuity of an
Indianapolis House Exemplified.

AS the State-house was nearing completion all
who saw the great windows Of that grand ediice
wondered how the drapery would be arranged
about them in order to accord with their mag
nifcent proportions The matter was put in the
hands of Albert Gall, and the way in which he
has solved the problem with regard to artistic
beauty, and effect has been to give even a
greater grandeur than was expected, and an ele-
eance to the surroundings that had not been
dreamed Of
That the Senate chamber and hall of the
House of Representatives are what they are,
exciting the wonder and admiration of all who
enter them, is largely due to Mr. Calls artistic
draping of these great windows-the largest in
the State. The arches of these windows are
sixteen feet round, while the beautifully flowing
curtains are twenty -four feet long 1t was, in
deed, the work of artist to give these elegant
draperies the graceful flow they possess, and to
have all their accessories in cords and fringes to
| properly harmonize in color There are five of
| these royal windows in the House and five in the
Senate, and the silken sails of Cleopatras gal
| ley were not poised more gracefully than these.
Mr. Gall has also upholstered the seats in the
| galleries OF the House and Senate and has fur
| nished the window-shades for the entire build
/ ing These last require ], 200 yards of Scotch
hollands, and most of the curtains are from
| sixty to seventy inches WIDE. The hundreds of
door-mats about the building are also furnished
| by Mr. Gall Some of these are large enough to
cover ordinary room. being eight by twelve
feet, thus covering 10, ga superficial inches. He
| has also furnished mattings for the Senate and
House and runners" to walk upon. 1t was a
large contract and 10 get everything in shape in

There was repose in both houses, yesterday,
and had it not been for the interest attaching to
the contest cases, it is possible the adjournment
1f Friday would have extended until Monday.
But both sides were on the alert, guarding
dgainst the danger that any event or incident OF

aeating of Republicans in the Senate, and the
same preceding in regard to Democrats in the
House, but neither committee on elections
seemed to be ready. Meetings of both were
announced for the afternoon, although tho Sen
ate committee began it's sitting an hour or two
earlier. In the order of business cessation
from politics was taken by common consent,
although Representative Roberts attempted to
shrow the House into discussion of the Mackey
contest. Omitting the preamble of the Kellison
effort in this respect, he renewed the reso-
htion that the committee on elections

made pending the call Of counties for the intro
duction of bills and resolutions not pertaining to
politics, it declared out of order. There
was slight opportunity for a minor political
disturbance when Senator Davis introduced a
resolution requiring the elective officers of the
Senate, as the law provides, to place in q con-
spicuous place the names and residences OF all
persons employed under them. The Senator
claimed that this necessary, but while he
shought it salutary law. and one that ought to
DO fulfilled, he did not think the Door-keeper had
fs yet ompleted his list of appointments. That
Senator Davis regarded as a minor objection. as
provision was made for all changes and altera
tions in the list that might occur. From the
committee appointed for that purpose came re
port that an examination Of the Senate journa
